Some agencies are going to find out the "essential or necessary" work will get done regardless, and when this crap is settled, there may be a few of these remarks like........"we didn't need to do any of this shit nor need half the people we have now.........."

I feel for the workers not getting paid. I think that all foreclosures should be put on hold.

Gov workers that aren't getting paid should be beating down Pelosi's door.

Also need Coast Guard, Border Patrol, ICE, prison guards, and the Secret Service. FBI? Not so much. Let all of those enemies of America go.

My son is affected. He’s an electrician. He’s worked every day of the furlough thus far.

It’s easy to be cavalier about such things until they hit home.

I feel for them also but the only saving grace for them is when everything is settled which it will be.....they will get their back pay......

The problem is the majority of Federal public employee unions make all thier political donations to liberal idiots like Pelosi.

Did you read in the MSM that last week a bill was introduced by a bipartisan team that would have ensured the federal employees on furlough would receive their first paycheck anyway, and only six democrats voted for this bill (it failed to pass) and even the democrat whose name was on the bill that introduced it didn't vote for it? You didn't? Imagine that.

Trump needs to have ICE agents standing by this year to arrest the illegal aliens that will no doubt be brought to Congress by the Dems. Undocumented and unafraid? Great! Let us help you get back to where you are documented.

That's a pretty large variance, even the last name doesn't quite look right. Look how the O in Pelosi in the older signatures is "riding" the s, but not even close in this one.
